Māori mythic women, reframed

Drawing on pūrākau, Patricia Ngaheu’s collection brings women of Māori mythology into an original narrative thread, presenting them as voices shaped by love, loss, power and transformation. Questions of identity and whakapapa connect these stories to the strength carried across generations. The collection’s stated aim of reclaiming women’s voices gives its mythic material an intimate focus. Its content note flags incest, domestic abuse, coercive control, violence, grief, death, bodily transformation and child peril.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers interested in Māori mythology and pūrākau.

Book overview

Hine is a lyrical collection of stories centred on the women of Māori mythology. Not as distant figures of legend, but as living, breathing voices shaped by love, loss, power, and transformation.

 

Drawing inspiration from pūrākau while weaving an original narrative thread, this collection reimagines wāhine through an intimate lens, exploring identity, whakapapa, and the enduring strength carried through generations. At its heart, Hine is a reclamation. A space where the voices of women are not only remembered, but heard.

 

Content note: This collection contains themes of incest, domestic abuse, coercive control, violence, grief, death, bodily transformation, and child peril.
